With increased detail running at a higher resolution and maintaining the same frame rate, it quite literally leaves the arcade version for dead. That's 640x480 at a constant 60fps.
Polished to a piercing gleam, considered beyond mortally tangible thought, it's the best beat 'em up we've played in years.

The fighting holds up and is super fun. i love the music and artwork and level of detail in the background of each map plus the fluent controls. LOVE ROUNDHOUSE KICKING THEM IN THE FACE *POW* not a must play but if you love fighting game definitely check it out.

If "Soul Calibur" (is) not perfect, it is without question the closest thing to it.
It blows away every 3D fighting game I've ever played (even "Virtua Fighter 3," and by a much bigger margin than I expected!), so go buy it when you get your Dreamcast, or feel like a total fool when it's sold out the next day.
The only thing missing is internet multi-player capability, but you can't have everything, can you...
The sound is good, but not good enough to be noticeable when combined with jaw-dropping graphics.
"Soul Calibur" revolutionizes (3D Fighting) with amazing graphics, intriguing characters and an incredibly smooth 60 frame per second game engine.
Good on it for starting a classic fighting game but the 99/100 scores are ridiculous.

Acho o jogo muito bonito e revolucionário, mas top 2 de todos os tempos? Sério? Todos sabemos que o gênero de luta em sí não atinge tanto e não abrange seus alcances, jogos muito mais divertido seria melhor tipo breath of the Wild, onde uma criança e um adulto poderia jogar e se divertir igualmente, não digo que todo jogo deveria ser aberto a todas as idades mas foi apenas um exemplo de jogo que tem mais fãs pelo fato de ser mais divertido e menos repetitivo, mas nem só de críticas negativas vive uma review, é realmente um jogo Premium e você vê que tem um atento ao design dos personagens, que. Por mais que poucos, são bem diversos estaticamente. Digo que ele merece reconhecimento mas nesta lista não.

Aha. According to the Metacritic ranking, Soul Calibur is the best fighting game of all time.
First of all, this should show the low degree to which lists created with spongy "indices" serve as a criterion for judging the quality of computers or video games.
Secondly, Soul Calibur is of course not a bad game, but in single player terms - like almost all DC beat em ups - it is completely irrelevant and boring after 2 hours.
The sequels do a much better job of balancing the strengths and weaknesses of the characters.
Don't be blinded by the ranking!
